100 Happy Days Challenge: Day 94

Happiness is...

   .. surviving a busy day. Meetings everywhere!
   ...taste of childhood. Got to it some pizza - that sweet, cheesy one I loved as a child. Don't know from where though. It was most probably a local, homebaked goody.

100 Happy Days Challenge: Day 91

Happiness is...

    ...a hearty breakfast. (no pic, too excited. haha :D ) I forgot it's Fiesta for us here at Buena Oro. No, we didn't take part in the rumbustious festivities. We had, however, kinilaw, sinugbang isda, ginataang puso ng saging, and bulalo for breakfast. Happy tummy is happy! <3
   ...a Saturday at home. No work, just lazying around.
   ...yakult! haha :D
   ...an on-going Harry Potter movie marathon. Re-living childhood. *bliss*

lazy Saturday

Dear You,



I’m not easy to shut up. It takes a lot to render me speechless. It is effortless on my part to exude that tough exterior. And more than that, a blushing me is as rare as Halley’s comet.

Thus I wonder…

How is it that you can do so, so effortlessly?

How is it that a simple word or phrase from you can catch me off guard? You make me blush without me even realizing it.

With you, I am a giggling school girl. Gone is the well put together me. With you, I am me – a blushing, giggly me.




Utterly confused and definitely flabbergasted,
me

   ...food. yey! haha :D If you haven't figured it out by now, food is always happiness.
   ...Geek Wars. Geek Wars Inc hosted the first Geek Wars at Angelo's Restorante, an Italian restaurant. Our group (Team Palaya - Ampalaya Shake Sugar Free) wasn't victorious but we did manage to break our personal record by having the highest score yet. hahaha
